In conversation with a case story : perspectives on professionalism, identity and ethics in social workSobočan, Ana Marija, 1980- ...In this co-authored article, one contributor presents a case story from an interview with a social worker in Slovenia, while five others offer commentaries on ethical aspects of the case. The story ... comes from a practitioner working with a pregnant young woman, arranging for adoption following birth. The social worker respected the woman's request to keep her identity secret, hence not registering her in the institutional records. However, whilst the social worker was on holiday, the baby was born and anonymity was not maintained. Commentaries 1 and 2 evaluate the story through its form: as a narrative with a tempo and plot; and as a performance that creates its narrator as an agent with an ethical identity. Commentary 3 uses a normative moral philosophical framework (virtue ethics), while the final two commentaries take a more grounded approach. Commentary 4 views the social worker as using discretion to act in a space void of rules (there is no provision for anonymous birth), whereas Commentary 5 foregrounds the Slovenian code of ethics as a source of ethical standards unremarked upon by the social worker. The article ends with reflections on the value of exploring multiple perspectives and engaging in dialogue in developing ethical understandings and actions.Source: Ethics & social welfare. - ISSN 1749-6535 (Vol. 14, no. 3, jul. 2020, str. 331-346)Type of material - article, component partPublish date - 2020Language - englishCOBISS.SI-ID - 14714371
